Claimant v ISS Facility Services Limited
Outcome
Individual claims
The tribunal determined that the claimant was not dismissed. Without a dismissal, a claim for unfair constructive dismissal cannot succeed as dismissal is a prerequisite for such a claim.
Facts
Ms Todorova brought a claim for unfair constructive dismissal against ISS Facility Services Limited. The case was heard over two days in January 2025 at London Central Employment Tribunal. The claimant represented herself while the respondent was represented by counsel.
Decision
The tribunal concluded that the claimant was not dismissed. Since dismissal is a fundamental prerequisite for a claim of unfair constructive dismissal, the claim failed and was dismissed.
Practical note
A constructive dismissal claim cannot succeed without proof that the claimant was actually dismissed, whether actually or constructively.
